Hmm. Assuming eighteen's spam filter works exactly as efficiently as does the spam filter on my gmail account, I'm guessing it got a LOT more than 4,382 emails over those 10 years. Most of them just got deleted every 30 days is all.

Quite a few people apparently use one of my Gmail addresses for all kinds of nonsense. My favorite thing to do is use new account confirmation emails to close accounts, change passwords, etc., so that they can no longer access whatever it is they used my email address for. It's one of life's little joys.

I have a not common, but, not uncommon name that I made as my gmail name, and even though I have a different gmail account now, I have stuff sent to that fwd to my current gmail acct. I get stuff all the time sent to "other" people with that name. Even more odd though that the "parents" of other people with my name sending me vacation photos is what are obviously people WITH my name, using the email address as their email address on their airline reservations, online website orders, etc. And it isn't like they used my CC or anything, they were just too careless to not use their middle initial or number or whatever they probably have that distinguishes their gmail address from mine when setting up the acct.

I've generally just let those go, and unsubscribed the email address to the websites, although I was tempted one time to reroute some cool looking RC helicopters someone bought from QVC to my house.
